BE COOL

2005
IF YOU SAW, GET SHORTY AND DID NOT ENJOY IT ---
1. WHAT THE F%#$#@ IS WRONG WITH YOUR LIFE ?
2.DON'T BOTHER SEEING THIS SEQUEL.
3. HOW CAN ANYONE NOT LOVE BROOKLYN'S OWN KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR, CHILLI PALMER - THE JASON BOURNE OF KING'S COUNTY.
THIS PICTURE IS FLAWED IN THAT IT WANDERS AROUND FOR PERIODS OF TIME AND IT IS UNFOCUSED AT TIMES AND FALSE DILEMMAS ARE CREATED TO GET SCREEN TIME FOR CERTAIN STARS --> AEROSMITH BAND MEMBERS, FOR EXAMPLE.
THERE ARE SOME SCENES THAT EVEN AN AMATEUR DIRECTOR WOULD HAVE REALIZED, ARE TRITE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN CUT OUT - IT IS BOTH POORLY WRITTEN AND POORLY DIRECTED - WHICH NORMALLY, WOULD BE THE KISS OF DEATH FOR ANY MOVIE.
NONE OF THESE MINOR / MAJOR FLAWS MATTER, THIS IS ONE ENJOYABLE PICTURE, CHUCK FULL OF STARS - EVERY PART IS PLAYED BY A STAR OR A FUTURE STAR OR A VERY TALENTED UNKNOWN ---> THE RUSSIAN MOB CREW, FOR EXAMPLE. I AM NOT GOING TO LIST ANYONE OUTSIDE OF JOHN TRAVOLTA AND CEDRIC THE ENTERTAINER.
THEY ARE WORTH THE PRICE OF ADMISSION AND ALL THE OTHER STARS PUSH YOU TO THE PROFIT SIDE, ON YOUR INVESTMENT IN A TICKET.
THE PLOT IS JUST AN EXCUSE TO SEE THESE STARS. I AM VERY CONFLICTED TO GO ON WITHOUT MENTIONING UMA THURMAN, THE ROCK, VINCE VAUGHN, HARVEY KEITEL, DANNY DEVITO, ROBERT PASTORELLI, ANDRE BENJAMIN ( OF OUTKAST ), JAMES WOOD AND SEVERAL MORE.
I SAW A REVIEW THAT ATTACKED THIS PICTURE AND THE DIRECTOR -- THAT REVIEW WAS 100% CORRECT - PLUS, THIS STORY IS NOT EQUAL TO THE ORIGINAL, BUT I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO LEAVE LOGIC AT HOME AND GO SEE THIS FLAWED MOVIE. THE STARS SAVE IT AND MAKE IT ENJOYABLE - YOU WILL HAVE MOMENTS, IN THIS NOTHING SPECIAL MOVIE, THAT ARE VERY SPECIAL. ONE SUCH MOMENT IS CEDRIC THE ENTERTAINER'S SPEECH ABOUT RACIAL EQUALITY.
